[08:49] <cjwatson> would anyone like to have a look at bug 743163?  iulian said "1:4.2-1 looks good to me but I wouldn't mind if someone else takes another quick look at it, just to be sure that I haven't missed something important"
[08:50] <ubot4> Launchpad bug 743163 in squashfs-tools (Ubuntu) "FFe: Sync squashfs-tools 1:4.2-1 (main) from Debian unstable (main) (affects: 1) (dups: 1) (heat: 506)" [Wishlist,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/743163
[15:22] <ogra_> lamont`, regular weekly acorn ping ... (it died again over the weekend)
[15:34] <mvo> skaet, slangasek: there is a (straightforward) patch to add basic multiarch support into python-apt in debian that I would like to merge. its a bugfix in a lot of ways, but just to be sure I would like to ask here if its ok or if you need a formal FFe?
[15:44] <skaet> mvo, you're sure no side effects?
[15:47] <ScottK> I'd suggest it's better to get it in sooner and find out for sure.
[15:47] <ScottK> mvo: You'll also want the python3 build fix too (not sure if you're syncing or cherrypicking).
[15:51] <mvo> ScottK: yeah, that one should be in as well
[15:53] <mvo> skaet: reasonable sure, I'm a developer for long enough to never say never, but any side effects would be bugs and currently with multiarch enabled, python-apt (and the support scripts that use it) fall over badly
[15:53] <mvo> but if there are concerns I'm fine doing a FFE
[15:54] <skaet> mvo,  then go ahead - if its primarily a bug fix.   I agree with ScottK,  soon rather than later is better right now.
[16:05] <mvo> thanks! I do it after the call
[16:05] <mvo> (in a call now)
[16:07] <micahg> skaet: good morning, I was wondering, were you going to send out an E-Mail for hardy desktop EOL?
[16:09] <skaet> micahg, yup, its on the to do list.  Decided not to send it out last week,  so it doesn't need to happen simultaneously with Karmic's EOL.
[16:10] <skaet> expect it to come out this week,  just doing a couple more checks.
[16:11] <micahg> ok, thanks, also, does UIF apply to unseeded packages?  (I wanted to get kdiff3 into a proper menu)
[16:13] <skaet> ScottK,  ^^ what's usual and customary here.   (am thinking that since its unseeded,  docs and translations aren't affected, but .... )
[16:13] <ScottK> IIRC it doesn't.
[16:14] <ScottK> However if it's a new feature, FF still applys.
[16:14] <micahg> ok, thanks
[16:30] <joshuahoover> skaet: can we get someone to approve bug #733327 for as a ui ffe?

[16:31]  * skaet looking
[16:32] <joshuahoover> thanks
[16:33] <skaet> joshuahoover, why did you make the importance of it undecided?
[16:34] <skaet> and did anyone respond with issues to your post to ubuntu-docs, and ubuntu-translators?
[16:34] <joshuahoover> skaet: oops, forgot to mark the importance to high there
[16:36] <joshuahoover> skaet: we heard back from dbm giving it a +1
[16:39] <skaet> joshuahoover,  ok,  lets get it in - will be good to have it fixed.    I've marked it approved.
[16:39] <joshuahoover> skaet: thank you!
[17:24] <skaet> cjwatson, pitti,   looks like I'm able to disable milestones now - :)   (11.04 beta 1 now disabled)
[17:25] <skaet> am moving over the beta 1 opens to beta 2 now
[19:08] <lamont> rolling outage in the buildds for a new launchpad-buildd  (as discussed last week)
[20:38] <slangasek> what's the state of the art for scanning the archive for particular strings/patterns in code?
